Like, you can't play the lesser evil card on people when you're not following that logic yourself. So don't bitch at people for not doing a thing you yourself aren't doing.

Also they decided to make the ending about "how can the hero beat the big bad without killing him" and went with pointy rock plus ability that comes out of nowhere, instead of the already established one.
Which brings me back to one of my rules, it doesn't matter if you're right when you're an asshole, because someone else is making the same point without being an asshole.
